Walkn' Shoes |
Mama never seemed to miss the finer things in life |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
she never wanted to be more than |
a mother and a wife |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
the only thing that seemed |
to be inportant in her life |
was to make a house a home and to make us happy |
Mama never wanted anymore than what she had |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
He often left her alone, |
she didn’t mind the stayin' home |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
and she never missed |
the flowers and the cards he never sent her |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
being took for granted was a that thing she accepted |
and she didn’t need those things to make her happy |
and she didn’t seem to notice |
that he didn’t kiss and hold her |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
One morning we awoke just to find a note |
Mama carefully wrote and left to daddy |
and as he began to read it out ears could not beleive it |
the words she had written there to daddy |
she said, «the kids are old enough, |
they don’t need me very much |
I’ve gone in search for love I need so badly |
I have needed you so long |
but I just can’t keep holding on» |
she never meant to come back home |
if she did, she never did say so to daddy |
Good-bye to daddy |
